    Jack London was one of the most prolific and imaginative writers America has ever produced. Many insist that his short stories are his most accomplished productions, and this collection includes eight masterpieces that showcase London's literary versatility and his genius at creating memorable, one-of-a-kind characters: "Moon-Face" - a study of extreme motiveless antipathy; "The Leopard-Man's Story" - passion and mayhem under the big top; "Local Color" - a wandering polymath might be too smart for his own good; "Amateur Night" - laugh-out-loud chronicle of a farm girl's bid to become a big-city journalist; "The Minions of Midas" - a tale of terrorism perhaps more disturbing today than it was 100 years ago; "The Shadow and the Flash" - life-long rivals strive to achieve invisibility in radically different ways; "All Gold Canyon" - a miner and a claim-jumper battle for a mother lode; "Planchette" - a young couple struggles against their own demons as well as forces from beyond the grave. ungekürzt.

    Hochspannende, opulente und glänzend recherchierte historische Fantasy aus der Zeit der Kreuzzüge Ein geheimer Auftrag des Papstes führt den jungen Ritter Raoul von Bazerat 1303 nach Jerusalem: Unter dem Vorwand, auf Pilgerfahrt zu sein, soll er das sagenumwobene Zepter des Heiligen Antonius finden. Für den todkranken Raoul ist die Reise möglicherweise die letzte Gelegenheit, seinem bislang recht ausschweifenden Leben einen Sinn zu geben. Doch der Tod könnte den Ritter schneller ereilen als gedacht, denn inmitten von Kriegshandlungen, Intrigen und Machtkämpfen im Heiligen Land ist Raoul ist nicht der Einzige, der das Zepter in seinen Besitz bringen will. Bald sitzen ihm päpstliche Handlanger ebenso im Nacken wie die Söldner des Sultans. Auf einer halsbrecherischen Flucht trifft Raoul auf die Ägypterin Jada. Auch sie hütet ein unfassbares Geheimnis - und kennt als Einzige die Wahrheit über das Zepter des Antonius ... Intrigen, Machtkämpfe und Magie zur Zeit der Kreuzzüge im Heiligen Land: Mit "Der Gesandte des Papstes" hat Christoph Lode einen fesselnden Mittelalter-Roman geschrieben, der mit historischer Genauigkeit ebenso begeistert wie mit seinen vielschichtigen Figuren und wohl dosierten Fantasy-Elementen.

    Zo Jones is enjoying the sunny season at her Happy Camper gift shop in Spirit Canyon, South Dakota-when a murder reminds her all that glitters isn't gold . . . The South Dakota Gold Rush might be long over, but Zo Jones feels like she's hit the mother lode when she and her friends browse an estate sale, where a rare old book about the history of Spirit Canyon is causing quite a commotion. In addition to local stories and secrets, the book may even contain the location of a famous stash of gold-a treasure worth killing for. Zo's friend Maynard Cline wins the bid on the book, to the chagrin of many interested parties, including the historical society and college history department. But when Zo and Hattie head to Maynard's mansion to borrow the book for a library event, the only thing they find is Maynard-at the bottom of the mountain. The valuable book is gone. Zo knows this must be murder because there's no way a germophobe like Maynard would have voluntarily dived into a pile of dirt. Now she'll have to dig into a new case, and go prospecting for a perpetrator . . .

    Robert J. Sawyer, the author of such "revelatory and thought-provoking" novels as Triggers and The WWW Trilogy, presents a noir mystery expanded from his Hugo and Nebula Award-nominated novella "Identity Theft” and his Aurora Award-winning short story “Biding Time”, and set on a lawless Mars in a future where everything is cheap, and life is even cheaper.... Alex Lomax is the one and only private eye working the mean streets of New Klondike, the Martian frontier town that sprang up 40 years ago after Simon Weingarten and Denny O’Reilly discovered fossils on the Red Planet. Back on Earth, where anything can be synthesized, the remains of alien life are the most valuable of all collectibles, so shiploads of desperate treasure hunters stampeded to Mars in the Great Martian Fossil Rush. Trying to make an honest buck in a dishonest world, Lomax tracks down killers and kidnappers among the failed prospectors, corrupt cops, and a growing population of transfers - lucky stiffs who, after striking paleontological gold, upload their minds into immortal android bodies. But when he uncovers clues to solving the decades-old murders of Weingarten and O’Reilly, along with a journal that may lead to their legendary mother lode of Martian fossils, God only knows what he’ll dig up.... ungekürzt.

    At age 16, Mink Jolle still hasn't discovered his Elemental affinity, which is an identity crisis unheard of on the planet Georra. He has endured constant bullying while being held back in school, and his parents have come to employ drastic measures to help him mature. Their current ruse is a camping trip on Rift Ridge, where they test Mink to the breaking point, to no avail. Meanwhile, Mink and his parents run across a machinist scout searching out a mother lode of ore, who finds more than he bargains for. An immense geode buried deep in the ground is fabled to be the Tear of God, and the first nation to claim it will hold power and protection unrivaled on Georra. The race is on as Mink's parents stand guard at the Tear of God, sending Mink back to his homeland for help. Defying the odds and surprising himself, Mink succeeds in delivering the news to his people, and is chosen to assist a team in returning to the site to relieve his parents and acquire the Tear of God for Octernal. Along the way, Mink is forced to rely on his strengths without an Element in order to win respect and ultimately discover his true identity. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Anishad Dadia.
